The Importance of Sleep on Cognition

Sleep is one of the most important — and often overlooked — factors in maintaining brain health. During sleep, the brain consolidates memories, regulates mood, and clears waste products that build up throughout the day. When sleep is disrupted, it can affect concentration, decision-making, and long-term cognitive health. This class explores why sleep is essential for the brain and how sleep patterns change as we age. Participants will learn about common sleep challenges, the relationship between sleep and memory, and practical strategies for improving sleep quality. Whether you struggle with falling asleep, staying asleep, or simply want to understand how sleep supports brain health, this session provides useful information and actionable tips.
